Which cam dowel hole is stock on 240's Cam gear?

I am changing my cam and did not mark which of the 3 holes in the cam gear the cam dowel belongs in. I have an idea which one just by looking but would like to be sure. The old cam got a lobe ground down by lack of oil due to the external oiler's gasket failing which cut oil presure to the lobes. Just got the car Saturday and went to adjust the valves and found this out.

 

Thanks in advance, Nelson

I'm guessing your refering to the timing marks on the gear the holes marked 1,2,3... in which case you shoudl put it at 1 first, check the timing... there is an oblong groove that the cam has to be to the right of i believe, kinda hard to explain, there are writes ups in the FSM and Haynes manuals

Thanks Nismo280zED,

 

I ended up looking at the stains on the old cam to figure out how it was located on old cam then got it back together.

 

Thanks again,

Nelson
